Colorado has a 4.4% flat income tax. Flat 4.4% income tax. Complex local tax jurisdictions — over 70 home-rule cities with their own sales tax rates. Denver occupational privilege tax ($5.75/month for employees).
When evaluating software costs, factor in your effective tax rate. A $480/year software expense is partially deductible — but Nexa at $279 once is a one-time deduction that eliminates the recurring expense entirely.
Hail season April-August drives roofing demand (Denver is #1 hail market in US). Ski season creates seasonal service demand in mountain towns. Freeze/thaw cycles create plumbing emergencies.
Autolavados in Aurora should plan their cash flow around these patterns. Nexa's budget envelope system helps you set aside revenue during peak season to cover slow months — something Alegra can't do because it keeps charging you $20/month even in your off-season.
Whether you call it invoice management, a program for jobs, or a invoicing system — most autolavados in Aurora stitch together Alegra, Square plus other subscriptions. That's $480/year in monthly software fees. Across five years at today's prices, the total damage is $2,400.
Nexa gives you the ability to exit the subscription trap. Your CRM, invoice management, calendar tool, jobs, time tracking, and financial tools — combined into one program. One move books a client. One move generates an invoice. No switching tabs. No third-party glue. No integration tax. It's a lifetime license — eliminate recurring fees the moment you switch. For autolavados in Aurora weighing the switch, the 30-day money-back guarantee covers the migration window — you can run Nexa in parallel with your existing subscriptions, verify the workflow handles your real client load, and only cancel the monthly tools once you are confident the data and processes have settled in.
Open 7am to 7pm. Cars flow in all day. Different price for sedan vs SUV vs truck. Tips split. Water bill is the killer. Everything in cash.
That is the work Nexa is built around: the job, the client, the hours and the invoice live in one place, so the paperwork side of the day doesn't need a second shift.
Every one of those was bought once and earns its keep for years. Nexa is priced the same way: $279 once, and it keeps working whether business is busy or slow.

We build a lavador's guide the same way every time, and we'd rather you trust it than take it on faith. Nexa is our product, so the test we hold ourselves to is simple: a tool only "wins" a job here when it genuinely does that job better for a lavador — and where something free, open-source, or buy-once does it better, we say so and link you to it. Where Nexa falls short (payroll is the honest example), we name the alternative outright.
Found something out of date? Prices change and we don't catch every move the day it happens. This guide is published and maintained by the Nexa team; if a figure here is wrong, tell us and we'll fix it — getting it right matters more to us than the sale.
